Was in Dundee, Aberdeen and Oban Dec last year (2022). Will visit again this Dec (2023) and will try the tips you shared. Let’s hope it doesn’t get too cold this year. From 🇧🇳

I was just thinking yesterday it would be nice if Jess gave us a video about shooting in the snow . . . and she did. Thanks!!

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

Hahaha as if by magic! I hope you enjoyed it :)

[@JinHwang]

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

Thank you 🙏

[@naatali4393]

I knew ...👀 😂. ..thank you, I will play with those settings and see what I can get! Pipi, is doing very well! 🏆

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

Have fun! She's a great model for sure :)

[@GigiEmbrechts]

Thanks for doing this video. I am a big fan. I have been shooting horses in the snow for years and I found to make the Snow White I up my exposure compensation to 1+ or 2+ depending on the light that way you can keep the shutter speed higher for action.

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@Eqkrishena]

You made me smile so much because you were an absolute kid in a candy store with the snow. It was like our dogs and myself because we got around 16 cm and it has stayed for days. We haven't had that in the Netherlands for 45 years haha. I am still figuring out how to edit my snow photos because well don't have much experience with that hahahahaha

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

We were very lucky to get a good amount, it was too good an opportunity to not go out and shoot in it! Probably won't be any for another 10 years now!

[@Eqkrishena]

@@ThatPhotographySpot exactly. It was crazy and it actually stayed for a little over a week hahahahaha.

[@wolfpaw69]

Good job. What tech are you using to capture camera screen.

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

It's just something we use to help us record the videos, it doesn't add anything to the video.

[@mooxiyy4075]

Hi! What lens and aperture do you use for your photos? I am learning how to carry out dog photography at the moment and I love the depth of field in your photos ❤️

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

I usually mention it in each video, like here with the 70-200mm at 2.8.

[@lingyic3549]

For this video, were you shooting with animal eye auto focus?

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

Yes :)

[@lingyic3549]

@@ThatPhotographySpot do you know if human eye autofocus would work just as well?

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

They are two different settings on the Sony cameras so I’m not 100% sure to be honest 🤷‍♀️

[@lingyic3549]

@@ThatPhotographySpot awh ok thanks!

[@photographywithprissy1351]

Can you do a video of training your dog head down that's what I'm trying to teach my dog so I can do cute photography photo like that I can teach it to my dog I would appreciate it

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

It’s already on the channel 😊 search for Bryt flat down - it’s a Bryt Diaries but there are two methods in the video 🙌

[@photographywithprissy1351]

@@ThatPhotographySpot ok thank you so much that will help a lot🥰

[@Stubby1031]

I didn't catch why you chose the low continuous instead of high continuous....

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

I switched in this instance from single shot to low continuous which is my normal portrait setting. Pippi and I were playing and it bumped a load of settings out! Single shot is too restrictive for me working with animals, but for portraits, all i'd get with 10fps high continuous is umpteen copies of the exact same enormous file. Low continous allows me to ensure my camera refocusses between shots, but lets me keep my finger held on the shutter. Hope this makes sense!

[@Stubby1031]

@@ThatPhotographySpot ohhhh yes! That makes complete sense!! I'll have to give that a try too. Thank you so much for explaining, really appreciate it! :)

[@KoiMadethline]

You know, every time I think my dogs are good and trained for photography, I see someone else do it leagues better 😂Very good photos! Usually the pictures of my aussie comes out gorgeous and on point because the contrasts better against the snow and my camera likes that but my border collie looks very dull in his photos. I suspect it's because the snow is so bright and he's a blue merle that my camera is like "yes, everything is grey and drab!" I cry lol.

[@ThatPhotographySpot]

Keep practicing! I hope the videos help :)
